Cultural Literacy Courses
Cultural literacy at Force Elementary is designed to enrich each
student’s school experience, providing him / her with a well-rounded
education. Students enjoy cultural literacy daily. They participate in
music, gym, art, and computers on a four-day rotation. Additionally,
the students make regular visits to the library.
- Physical Education, Mrs. Ellis:
During this school year, I encourage parents to participate in their child’s physical development and fitness. Children need a minimum of at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day. Go for a walk, take a bike ride or toss a ball. Keep your family moving.
- Music, Mrs. Yetter:
- Art, Mrs. Elich:
- Computer Technology, Mr. Heywood:
- In order to prepare students to succeed in an information rich
society, the computer program at Force Elementary is designed to ensure
that students are effective users of tools, ideas, and information. The
program teaches students to efficiently use information and technology;
to construct knowledge through Internet research and evaluation of
information; and to become quality producers through the use of word
processors, spreadsheets, and presentation tools.
- Library, Mrs. Hensley
The Force Elementary Library has approximately 10,000 books in English
and Spanish for student use. Classes come once a week to checkout
books and are encouraged to get books that they will be successful in
reading. Have your students share their books with you, so that you can
be a part of their success in becoming competent readers. Also,
it is explained to the students that they are responsible for the books
that they checkout, so if one is lost or damaged, it must be replaced
or paid for.
